Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan recently met acid attack survivors in Kolkata on the sidelines of the IPL match. The actor was in the city for a cricket match between his IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders and Kings XI Punjab at the Eden Gardens. SRK has already shared pictures from the meeting asking his fans to pray for his 'sisters'. Sharing a glimpse of his meeting, the actor wrote, “All of u please put ur hands in prayer...and say Bhagwan inki zindagi ki nayi shuruaat mein...inpar karam karna...May God have mercy on them...Insha Allah. These r my sisters & need ur prayers for recovery, without distinguishing between the mode of prayer.”
Now, a video from the meeting has been shared by the foundation which works for acid attack survivors. In the clip, SRK is seen interacting with the brave ladies before their corrective surgeries through Meer Foundation’s #ToGETherTransformed initiative. The surgeries are taking place in New Delhi, Varanasi and Kolkata through March.
In the video, Shah Rukh Khan is seen discussing possibilities of growth. He also exchanged dreams and thoughts. "In my heart, this is like a family. All of you are like my own people. I don't know much about each of you, because everyone has their personal lives and I don't want to get into those details. The main thing is to believe we can be independent. I'll be in touch with the doctors and get regular updates. We will try and get the best people to work with us,'' the actor said.
